"In this session we worked on division timed tests, estimating and multiplying, and multiplying numbers in your head. "

"We covered dimensional analysis in chemistry. Specifically, we looked at volumetric changes between liters and cubic meters, as these had been giving the student some trouble. We also covered the basics of dealing with logarithms, as well as graphing inverses involving logarithms. He seemed quite confident after the lesson, and I instructed him to continue with his worksheet for extra practice. "

"This is the student's 2nd Algebra 2 tutoring session. It was very successful. We practiced about 20 problems involving logarithm properties, simplifying logarithms, solving exponential equations, and solving logarithmic equations. Many of the logarithmic equations were quite challenging, some involving a "y" substitution for an algebraic expression, and others involving the change of base formula. Each problem was different from the previous, so getting momentum was challenging. But all of the problems continued to reinforce the same basic logarithmic properties and rules, so by the end of the session, the student was able to look at a tough equation and immediately recognize the first few steps required to simplify the equation to solve it. The student was able to demonstrate, with ease, his ability to perform fast mental calculations. He is meticulous and continues to take pride in his work. "

"The student did a few problems that he was assigned. I will be emailing his mom with his assignment to see if he will complete more of it. We worked with coordinate planes - basically naming the quadrants and placing points on the graph. "

"We dealt with the PowerPoint presentations by the instructor on production, competitive and monopolistic markets, competitive advantage, production, and costs. We were trying to prepare the student for the test scheduled for this evening and fix the concepts in her mind. She is diligent and appears ready, especially to illustrate these concepts in the health industry. She has text material to review as well. We discussed existing examples of markets and behavior of the companies as well. We agreed that we would meet again to prepare for the midterm in the course."

"In this tutoring session, the student and I first starting talked about her experiences in school for the first few days. This was especially relevant to our work together because it helped to give us a better picture of her expectations for when she is abroad, starting at the end of the month. Once we finished talking about the beginning of school, we moved on to look at some diagnostic math homework that was assigned. This covered a wide range of material from geometrics to ratio word problems. She moved through the packet and we discussed strategies that could be used. After working on math, we worked briefly on the chemistry of ionic compound naming. "

"The student is focused on review of his chapter on asymptotes. We went over horizontal, vertical, and slant asymptotes, as well as polynomials with holes. He has a strong grasp of the concepts. He was also introduced to more complex polynomials where the function crosses asymptotes. I emphasized that he needed to repeat more problems in the section and in review. If he follows suggestions, positives results will happen."

"We went over solving word problems, prime factorization, and exponents. The students were struggling with how to solve each problem step by step. The students were a little unsure with what happened in each step of the work. Some extra practice was given in the session to help them understand how to solve a question. "

"We went over the student's recent test. She did very well, so there weren't many topics to discuss. Then, we jumped into a new topic. We discussed minimization and maximization problems, which are essentially just word problems that employ the first derivative test. We went through a few examples together, and then she did a few practice problems herself. She caught on to the topic very quickly, so we decided to move onto a new topic. We spent the remainder of the session discussing calculus capabilities of her graphing calculator. I introduced her to functionality on the calculator that can allow her to check her work both on homework and on the AP test. I did stress that the calculator is meant to be an asset not a crutch."

"Today, we mostly reviewed the naming of compounds. The student is doing very well. I think she just needs to start believing in herself to improve her scores. "

"The student had her algebra midterm exam the next day, and we focused on completing questions she had trouble solving on her midterm review provided in class. The topics were quite wide ranging, but we managed to cover most of the questions she wanted to go over. "

"We reviewed extra problems for adding and subtracting polynomials to prepare for the student's quiz on Friday. She was very confident by the end of the session and said she felt much better about the upcoming quiz. We practiced going through every step for every problem so she didn't miss any details during the quiz. We also talked about some important concepts to focus on during the quiz. "
